Wow, look at that lineup. I think Gardy may have been replicated by alien pod people.
Is this start for Parmelee out of sympathy? Will he get sent down after the game to make room for Morneau, or will they actually go down to 12 pitchers? Since they'll be in an NL park this weekend, you'd think that the Twins would want the bench flexibility, but then again ...
No Span? Curious.
Might as well give Span a rest - he's started all but 1 game this season, and he's hitting .205 over the last 10 games.
Updating a previous item, Denard Span is out Tuesday due to a sore hamstring.
It's nothing major and Span is available off the bench. Consider him day-to-day for now.

Who is twirling for the Tribe? I'm wondering if it's a lefty. Also, if Gardy prefers Carroll at third and Casilla at second (as they are aligned today) why has Casilla played third when he has replaced Plouffe?
So in his pre-game comments Gardy doesn't see how they can go down to 12 pitchers.
Great, to interleague ball with a weak bench and bloated staff. Should work great.
That is one sorry lineup
Wow...my glass-half-full outlook sees a good mix of OBP/speedy gonzaleses and some power bats.Quote:

MAUER batting SECOND!!!!!
Plouffe on the bench.
Mauer batting 2nd. Finally!
5 pitch first for Lowe. Impressive (not)
Good luck with that....Quote:

Un-fu****g believable!!!! another double play!
Good thing that the Twins can only hit into one DP per inning, because if they could do it more they would.
It's a shame mastro didnt lead off the game with a single so they'd have a chance at a GDP in every inning.
